| 190281
Res. Grand Champion International 1930
Grand Laet, the Percheron stallion purchased in the spring of 1930. What a pedigree! Sired by Jerome, a Chicago champion son of Laet and out of Carnona V, the daughter of Carnot voted to be the ideal type Percheron mare a few years later. Purdue exhibited this horse to reserve grand champion at the 1931 International.
Another transaction in the spring of 1930 was the private sale of Grand Laet from W.H. Butler, Columbus, Ohio, to Purdue University. Purdue exhibited him to reserve grand champion at the 1930 International that same fall/winter. Grand Laet was purchased by Mr. Butler in dam from Maryvale Farms of Youngstown, Ohio. He was sired by Jerome, the 1924 International grand champion son of Laet. His dam was none other than Carnona V, grand champion mare at Chicago in 1922 and ‘23. She was a daughter of the famous Carnot and was bred by W.S. Corsa, White Hall, Illinois. In the late ‘30s, she was voted the ideal type Percheron mare.
